Plague Stories

When a deadly disease ravages the town of Holmsley, Frankie and her friends find themselves trapped inside a military-blockaded quarantine zone. ***** A story that was first published in 2014 and feels more relevant than ever.

It seems she'll have to unravel the dark truth behind it all if she wants to get out alive...

You ever wonder what happens when the world ends? Not the stories people tell. Not the heroes who arrive at the last moment to save everyone. The real end. When the walls start to crack. When monsters inherit the earth. When children grow up learning how to bury the dead before they learn how to live. Three thousand years ago, the sky split open. We call it The Sundering. What came through destroyed everything. A plague twisted beasts into nightmares. Nations vanished. Oceans swallowed cities. Humanity was brought to the edge of extinction and left there to rot. Somehow, we survived. Now the last remnants of civilization hide behind steel and stone while horrors roam the wastelands beyond. Every year another settlement disappears. Every year another family is torn apart. Every year the world finds a new way to remind us that it should have killed us long ago. My name is Lyra Vesper. I'm not a hero. I'm not a chosen one. I'm not the strongest person in the room. Most people take one look at me and see a frightened girl struggling to survive in a world that doesn't care whether she lives or dies. Most people are right. But survival changes people. Pain changes people. Loss changes people. And there comes a point when you've lost so much that you stop asking how to save the world and start asking whether it's worth saving at all. Maybe every monster starts as a person. Maybe every villain believes they're justified. Or maybe the difference between a hero and a monster is simply how much suffering they're willing to endure before they break. This isn't the story of a hero. It's the story of a dying world, and the girl who might one day decide to let it burn.

Kids are such a joy aren't they. You know 2 grandkids of Lucifer with 2 more on the way, 2 hardheaded smartasses that came from king dumbass himself, 1 of death, 2 of war and 2 of the enemy. Joyous right? Yeah, so let's have a little reunion. It's been years since they've all been in one place. Might as well get the band back together. I know you'll miss me narrating the whole shindig, but I have to give the kids a chance, because shit is about to hit the fan. I'm not talking about the soft shit, I'm talking the messy kind, that is out of control. The kind that leaves you with love, hate and confusion. That's all I can say, you'll have to find out for yourself to see what happens. Oh did I forget to mention they have no idea of the power they hold? -------------------------- "You told her?!" I flinched at mom's tone. "Kali- wow," Belle breathed when she turned to see her sister gone. "Kali told her, not me." Ma's hands were shaking at her sides. I've never actually seen her get mad to that point before. Now she looked like she wanted to fight, but she always tells me not to. I really want to see how this plays out since she's war and all. "Should I tell Uri, or Nasima, or should I feed the twins to fire and let the rest find them?" Belle's eyes literally turned a shade darker in green. "You wouldn't like it, so why didn't you stop Kali?"

What the title says. Some stories will take some chapters while others will be one-shot fanfic. Of course some knights will have more space than others but I want to try to use them all, as well from going through different themes like the games do. Hope you enjoy! ----- [Disclaimer] All characters and setting belong to Yacht Club Games, I own nothing but the stories here written. English is not my first language, so I apologize beforehand for any mistake.
